Using the latter value and assuming Omega_Lambda = 0.7, Omega_m = 0.3, and H_0 = 70 km s-1 Mpc-1, the isotropic-equivalent energy of the burst is E_iso = 2.06 x 10^(52) ergs. Using this value of E_iso and equation (1) of Frail et al. (ApJ 562, L55, 2001) [see also Sari et al. (ApJ 519, L17, 1999)] to estimate the jet break time, we find t_j = 1.3 [(1+z)/2.60] (theta_j/0.070)^(8/3) [E_iso/2 x 10^(52) ergs] x (eta/0.2)^(-1/8) (n/0.1 cm-3)^(-1/8) days. Analysis of the WXM data for GRB021004 gives the following value for the fluence of the burst in the WXM energy band: S = 7.5 x 10-7 erg cm-2 (2-25 keV). The fluence ratio S(2-25)/S(50-300)= (7.5 x 10-7)/(1.8 x 10-6) = 0.42 implies that GRB021004 is an X-ray rich GRB [log (S_x/S_gamma) > -0.5]. This message is citable.
